Where I'm Going to Be Next

For a host of reasons, I do try to limit my travel. But I also do give talks, and I do do interviews, and this corner of the blog will tell you what's upcoming. If you'd like me to come speak, send me an email at jewishfarmer@gmail.com, and we'll see if we can work things out.

My Next Talk:

On February 16 at 3pm, I'm giving a FREE talk on the basics of food storage - why and how - at my friend Joy's store, The Olde Corner Store 133 Factory, Gallupville NY 12073. 518-872-1610. All are welcome, and Joy will be offering a discount to anyone who wants to get started in storing bulk foods.

About the Books

In case you wondered, there are two of them.

Coming out in the fall of this year, _Depletion and Abundance: Life on the New Home Front_ focuses on how families can adapt to a lower energy, hotter world - and help hold back the worst of the disaster as well.

Coming in Spring '09, _A Nation of Farmers_ co-authored with Aaron Newton explores our current agricultural situation, makes a case for a sustainable future, and draws the connections between our agriculture and our lost democracy.

Both forthcoming from New Society Publishers.

About Me

I'm a 35 year old writer and subsistence farmer, author of two forthcoming books on Peak Oil and Climate Change _Depletion and Abundance: Life on the New Home Front_ (Fall '08) and _A Nation of Farmers (And Cooks)_ (Spring '09) the latter co-authored with Aaron Newton. Both books are forthcoming from New Society Publishers.
I used to run a small, Jewish themed CSA, but now we're concentrating on subsistence agriculture, growing food and teaching others to grow food.
My training was in literature, focusing on the Renaissance and demographic and cultural crises of the 17th century. I've switched to focusing on the demographic and cultural crises of the 21st century for the moment, but retain an interest in all things literary.
In my spare time (of which there isn't much), my husband Eric and I are raising Eli (7 1/2), Simon (6), Isaiah (4) and Asher (2), and assorted critters and livestock, building an agrarian future.

Where to Live?

This is by far the most commonly asked question I receive. I'm going to answer it in two parts, first, broad regional issues, and next I'll do the city/suburbs/country question. Or rather I'm not going to answer it at all - that is, I don't think that there's only one good answer to this question, so I'm not going to try and provide them, so much as offer some things to think about.

First let us dispense with the obvious. I assume you know that the north is cold, the south is warm and that this is mostly a matter of personal preference. That is, you can live quite well on little or no energy in the very cold north, or the very hot south. You might not like it, but it will not kill most people. Every time I say this, someone argues that heat and cold do kill. This is true - they just don't have to, for the most part.

Yes, there are a few medical conditions that make you especially sensitive to one or the other. And yes, you can die from both heat and cold. But even without powered heating, people are designed to tolerate a lot of cold - if they weren't, we'd never have survived until the invention of central heating. If you dress warmly, bundle up when sleeping, wear a hat, layer, sleep with another human or a dog, and move around during the day, you can live with no supplemental heat. You probably won't like it very much, but you will do fine. It is worth noting that the Lapp people routinely slept out in -50 temperatures in tents heated only by our body heat – if they can do that, we make a four-poster bed and layer up and do the same at night. During the day, just keep moving. People who freeze to death in their homes are generally elderly or children and don’t know how to respond to growing hypothermia – they may even feel warm and take off their clothes. The best cure for this is being together, and adults watching over the very vulnerable, and making sure they get enough calories and are protected from the worst of the cold.

The same is true of heat. Yes, people die of heat stroke - but mostly they are elderly or disabled people who are alone, muddled by the heat's affect on their bodies, who lack the ability to do simple things like put their feet in a bucket of water or hydrate adequately. As in the cases in California recently, most of the people who die of heat stroke or cold, die because they are isolated, not because of the weather per se. Have close communal ties and a system of support for those without family, especially those with medical conditions, infants and the elderly, and understand the basics of physiology and treating the early stages of hypothermia or heat exhaustion, and such deaths could be greatly reduced or eliminated.

All of which means that temperature in and of itself is largely a matter of personal preference. My personal preference is that I will gladly live with minimal (I sleep already in a room heated only by the ambient heat of a distant woodstove, as do my children) heat all winter than live in a place with 90+ degree temperatures all summer long.

This is a matter of taste - I hate the heat and like the cold. This is one of those pick your poison issues - snow, ice and cold or heat. You should be aware that all regions will get warmer gradually, so be prepared to live with not just what it is now but what it will be in a few decades. In the meantime, if you like neither extreme, there are some options there, too - the Pacific Northwest and the southern Appalachians, for example.

Then there's the matter of neighbor prejudice. This you can get in bulk at various websites and in various books, so I'll try and keep it to a minimum here. The idea that right thinking people don't want to live near conservative Christians, that scary Asian pirates will depopulate the Pacific Northwest, that Latinos will rule the Southwest with an iron hand, and that inner cities will be filled with "them" rioting and shooting all assume a. we are not whatever "them" we're worrying about and b. that this is going to be the defining feature of the future. I don't swear it isn't true, but I also think the whole thing is probably rather overstated.

There are some people who probably will have good reason not to pick certain regions - but there will be many people who find those regions compelling precisely because of a scary-to-others immigrant population or religious culture. Since I know there are various “thems” of all sorts among my readers, I’m going to suggest that instead, you find communities that you feel secure in – gay readers may not prefer to live in the conservative Christian south, but they might be happy among the terrifying them of flannel shirt wearing lesbian Vermont farmers, while an African Methodist reader might find the whole idea of Vermont horrifying. Pick your poison.

Having grown up in New England, personally I think reserve, protestant work ethic and a tendency to wear winter hats with shorts and sandals is completely fine, but that is a matter of taste. My ancestors tend to be among those who heard the message "Go West Young Man" and rather thought, "Ayuh, it may be cold, and the land grows better rocks than corn, but clam chowder and not sitting on my behind on a wagon for six months look pretty good to me." Thus, I am no Westerner, either. But again, let us not mistake these things for knowledge, or truth, or anything but custom, comfort and habit. I'm all for indulging personal preferences - I think mostly people should live their lives where they are comfortable, where their community is supportive and where the climate suits them.

So what should you care about when choosing a place to live? Here's my own personal list of the most important factors:

- A PLACE TO STAY, to pass down and that you believe will be good for you and your family for the long term. The coming changes may well involve a great shift in how we regard natural resources like land and water. We are moving from a society that has invested enormous economic value in things far removed from the origins of their production, to a society that is probably going to be hyper-aware that wealth = natural resources. In a society where food is scarcer, water is short and resources are stretched to their limits, land and the resources on it, along with the capacity to do things like grow food and wood, are likely to be intensely valuable.

In many societies, ordinary people have been sustained by their access to the land and their long term ties to that land. Generally speaking, ordinarily poor people cannot buy much, if any land - instead, they inherit it - families steward land and pass it down from generation to generation. We do not do this in the rich world very much, but I think we may go back to it. While for a short while we may become a mobile society, with many refugees relocating, over the long term we may become more fixed, more bound by our investment in a place and the community ties we depend on.

So the first factor I personally take into account is a place to stay. This is not a perfect solution, of course - no one can know the whole future, and migration is always possible. But unless we stop and stay, we will not be able to feed ourselves from our land, and we will never become truly native to anywhere, with a native awareness and love for a place. So I would recommend an area that you have reason to believe will continue to be a good place to live not just next year, but in 50 and 100 years. This is difficult, given the impact of climate change - projections are uncertain. But generally speaking, if the map shows that your home will be under water in 25 years, you might want to consider moving before the rush devalues your home. Take a good and serious look at the long term.

WATER, and lots of it. I can't stress this one enough. Anything less than 20cm of rainfall a year is impossible to farm without extensive irrigation - don't bet on having the power to do this. Personally, if you think there's any chance at all that, due to pump failure, aquifer depletion, drought or competition from others that you might need to rely primarily on rainfall, I wouldn't take less than 20 inches of rain per year, evenly distributed. That is, if you have a dry season, where it doesn't rain for months on end, be absolutely sure you can fill your tanks sufficiently to get through.

Now I know there are people who worry about water less than I do. I have a friend doing remarkable things with dry land tree agriculture in Israel, and she, among others, has great hopes. I, however, have my doubts. The reality is that most very dry places have never supported large populations. Moreover, in such places, the foodshed is extremely large - Gary Nabhan, author of Coming Home to Eat required a local diet of 250 miles, rather than 100, simply because of limited availability. While some people will undoubtedly do very well in the dry plains, deserts or other low rainfall areas, the question becomes what kind of population the area will be able to support.

I personally would be very reluctant to live in much of the dryer parts of the American Southwest, parts of Australia and the driest parts of the Plains of Canada and America, unless I had full legal rights to reliable sources of water. Riparian water rights, as practiced in the Western US make water issues more contentious, and I would want to be absolutely sure that I could draw water from my source for a long, long time.

In addition, look for comparatively clean water. This is increasingly difficult to find all over the US - there is almost no drinkable groundwater, or freshwater that I'd like to take a lot of fish out of these days. We've contaminated our most basic resource beyond compare. Make sure that you get water tests from any well you might consider using, understand the basic pollutants in your area, and have a good idea what and who you are downstream from, and I would recommend that everyone have a high quality water filter, ideally gravity fed, like the British Berkefield or Katahdin filters. Even if you have to eat beans, dandelions and rice for a month to afford it, I'd consider this a worthwhile investment for anyone who has any spare cash at all.

At a minimum, unless your house has a spring as pure as ivory, I would never permit children or women who are or might become pregnant to drink unfiltered water from any source that has not been thoroughly and carefully evaluated. We cannot afford to damage future generations, and if we are to have fewer children in the future, their lives and health will be all the more precious.

NOT SITTING ON TOP OF MAJOR ENERGY RESOURCES. The next few decades are going present reasons to try and extract the last drops out of old oil wells, coal out of areas previously deemed too populated or dangerous to touch, etc... I do not want to be on top or very near any major energy source - natural gas, uranium, coal or oil. The toxic, environmentally disruptive nature of extraction of all sorts means that my own basic goals of reasonable security, minimal medical interventions, food self-reliance, can be utterly destroyed by one nearby mountaintop removal or uranium extraction. These projects contaminate water tables and streams, generate toxic air, noise and water pollution and generally make life miserable for the people around them. They are the price of our insatiable desire for energy.

So if the words "old coal mine" or "natural gas well" appear anywhere on your proposed property or near it, run like heck, unless you own every single mineral right and are sure that there is no other way to get at them (that no one can dig the coal from the next property over). Frankly, I don't even want to be the same region as most such enterprises – they don’t just pollute the immediate area, but air and water for miles around. The Supreme Court's recent removal of restrictions on eminent domain means that I would be very, very cautious even if I did own all the rights to minerals on my land. I've reluctantly come to the conclusion that my New England ancestors were probably right - the best land out there may be the land that nobody really wants too badly.

LOCAL FOOD SECURITY in a place where you can eat a diet you like, and where the region can mostly feed itself. I think we will find as we live and eat more locally that our diets change - sometimes dramatically. Most people who live regionally eat a few staple foods every single day. They have other special foods, but if we live regionally, we will eat regionally, as most human beings have through most of history, our cuisine will become localized as well. This is not a bad thing – people travel all over the world to experience local cuisines and their specialties.

When you are picking a spot, you probably should pick a place where you like the food, since food is a factor in quality of life. If you are "from" tortillas, and chilies, the potatoes, baked beans and fish of the Northeast may not be all that appealing to you. You can cook almost anything almost anywhere, with variations, but your kids will, to some degree, end up adapting to the culture and you will have to make do with what grows.You also should probably think hard about where your food is coming from. That doesn't mean that we all absolutely have to live in regions that can be self-supporting, but it is a matter of rational bet-hedging.

If you live in the I-95 corridor of the US, say in New York City, your 100 mile diet will run into the hundred mile diets of the heavily populated suburbs of Westchester, Long Island, Northern New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. You'll also run into the 100 mile foodsheds of Albany, Stamford, New Haven, Hartford, Newark, Trenton, etc...Etc... - all large cities with large populations. That is, there is simply no meaningful way that these regions can be fully food self-sufficient - their food is going to have to come from less populated areas.Now this in itself doesn't mean that everyone has to leave these areas - but you do need to have a local system for food, water and energy that can be sustained in the long term - it isn't enough just to say "oh, great, we'll get our food from nearby” – make sure you know that it is possible. You want to choose places that have a land around them, and the potential to produce a great deal of food.

NEAR THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE - the times that are coming are going to make us depend on one another more than we have. If there are people in the world who have your back, who love you, who you care about, be near them. Transportation is getting expensive, and all of us are going to need all the help we can get. This factor, in the end, may trump everything else.

A corollary of this would be “near people you like” – that is, if we are indeed entering into a less energy intensive and more localized world, your life is going to be shaped by your neighbors and immediate community. So pick a place where you feel comfortable – not necessarily where everyone is like you, but where it seems like community might be created.

Ok, next time, should you chuck it all and move to the country? Live in the city where the public transport is good?

You might be able to do searches online for specific areas too, like say "nevada oil" or "map nevada oil" (as an example).

The first three links above are U.S.-focused. The Uranium one is global. I've no doubt that more specific searches would turn up useful sites for other countries as well. You might also want to do a search for say "nuclear power plant location", as another type of search.

Bother. The uranium map site isn't that great... figured out that it just gives total amounts per country, not specific locations. So, if you want to know about those, I'd try more specific searches like "nuclear power plant location" or go check out the government web site for your state/province/country, and see what they have on information on energy.

Thank you for this timely (for me) posting. I am going to graduate in 1 1/2 years and I am trying to decide where to live next. Being a PhD, I will have to go where the job takes me but I want to try and make a smart decision about where to accept based on more than just salary and tenure clock's. I believe I will be better off in a smallish city (like the one I am in now- population under 200,000 and in the farm belt) but that is all I have come to so far. Also, do I build or buy and retrofit? These are the questions that are making me crazy. With a glut of houses in foreclosure, it feels that building may be waste of resources but I've always wanted a straw bale or cob house. Some of my colleagues laugh at me for thinking about buying a small house with a few acres on the edges of a smallish college town. They want condos and city living with easy access to everything and, in some ways, I want those things as well but, last year, I discovered peak oil, peak natural gas and, I fear one day, peak food and stopped in my tracks on the cozy college career with disposable income and time to figure out what my life might eventually look like (big plans for a B&B after teaching for about 10 years). I also want to see my grandchildren inherent more than a messed up world but a way to survive and thrive in it. All this information makes me crazy but the housing issue is looming large so thank you for this post.

About 3 years ago, we bought a place that is only about 6 feet above sea level. It worries the heck out of me, but my dh is busily planting apple trees & says it's not a problem. Short of abandoning both him AND the property, I guess I have to make the best of it. Still, I'm wondering if I should maybe invest in some land a little further inland just in case!

Then, too, you can find the perfect earth, and live there ten years; start from scratch, and pour your blood and sweat into it, and build your own house with your own hands and start your family, and only then the mutant zombie bikers buy the land next door and procede to create hell on earth...but...think it matters to the sheriff whose salary your taxes pay? I think a peaceful, quiet, productive life in the material world is an illusion; one of those "Matrix" thingies, maybe. Investigate the ordinances governing dogs, land use, and nuisance noise that cover property before you buy it; don't be seduced by a prettyish sort of wilderness or an attractive soil profile. Or maybe buy enough so it doesn't matter...It will save you a lot of grief. grieving. heartbreak. Lynn

We bought an Aqua Rain gravity water filter. Unlike the Berkey, it is made in the USA and is less expensive. We ordered it from Yellowstone Trading. Google Aqua rain and they are on the list. I love it-you can even filter rainwate through it to drink.

Right now I live where my family lives. My parents are on the same street, my brother and SIL are a couple miles away and my Grandmother one mile away. I don't think Florida is the best place to stay with sea level rise, but we would not be directly affected for quite awhile since we are in North FL. I bet more people will move up here from South FL. We do have thoughts that we may need to move sometime, but not sure when the best time would be.Cindy in FL

Sharon, I found after searching the Internet that the water filters are called Katadyn (not Katahdin).

Jen, I don't know how long you have before you have to evacuate at only 6ft above sea level. You will likely be forced out by the rising sea in my lifetime. The future is not certain though, and the best we can do is to prepare the best we can and roll with the punches when they come.

We just got a British Berkefeld filter and use it to transmogrify well water into drinking water. I'm not quite adapted to the taste yet (it all seems a bit 'soft', and the tea tastes a bit unusual - not bad, just different). Whatever, it certainly takes the iron and sulfur out!

Thank you very much for this post and those to come. I really appreciate seeing your thought patterns on these subjects, and frequently it gives me another thing to consider. I am truly grateful.

We are struggling with our decisions - it looks like we are "stuck" here in the Great Plains until at least tenure, although we plan to stay long term (academic discipline is restrictive, not widespread - great planning on the part of our idealistic 22 year old selves).

I am worried about water. But thank you for mentioning that threshold of 20cm. At least my city currently gets an average over 28 inches. But 1936 saw only 14 inches, but that's 35cm?. We have researched water storage, greywater systems and such. I'm still not as happy about our groundwater supply, but at least current rainfall supply is adequate.

We are already committed victory gardeners and this gives me hope.

Your point about family/friends is also well taken. I am worried about being so far from them. Give me the beautiful western Wisconsin hills and I'll be happy! We will keep our eyes open for relocation, although our current student loan debt coupled with few jobs in our field restrict us more than I'd like.

We can be near group A or B of the people we love and end up under water. Or near group C--with nine inches annual percipitation. Or somewhere else.

Right now we're not terribly far from group C, but we're looking at moving somewhere wetter but not too wet--like 24 inches annual percipitation, but we'd be no where near family.

We're thinking it makes sense to take the wetter option, and get a bigger house than we need for just us, figuring on long term houseguests between the one issue (rising seas) and the other (high desert). Eventually, assuming things happen slowly enough. Both sets of costal relatives rely on one interstate for leaving their area--something those thinking about the Pacific Northwest might want to consider: heavy rains can make it impossible to get away from the coastal area. Also, remember volcanos in that area: it hasn't been that long since Mt. St. Helens blew, and the others are all active.

Where we are right now is a natural gas mining area. There are jobs, lots of them, and they pay pretty decently, too. The best part is the jobs are pretty much recession proof--if Americans can't buy as much fossil fuel, the Chinese are happy to pick up the difference. If you're in an industry likely to be hit really badly by the depression/recession, and you have enough debt that you'll sink in a few weeks if you loose your job, you might consider relocating to such an area.

Anonymous--unless you're completely isolated from your local communities, you'd probably already know, except for maybe uranium. Gas, coal, and oil are all very needed right now, and there's probably a huge debate going on about methods of extraction and places and wildlife that ought to be protected in your community if any of these are there.

There was this guy who believed very much in true love and decided to take his time to wait for his right girl to appear. He believed that there would definitely be someone special out there for him, but none came.Every year at Christmas, his ex-girlfriend would return from Vancouver to look him up.

As with women’s leggings, these seem to be designed to be layered with other clothing items, which do offer a little bit of modesty. Well, I’m not sure this is a trend that will take on, but if it does it’s certain to winter a whole new set of over-exposure solutions as we’ve seen with the camel toe! Moncler men Jackets , Leggings have been hot for women over the past few seasons, but I didn’t think they might extend to the other gender, at least not outside of sporting events that require down jackes, did you?Stars are always exposed to dress sexy, but in the winter cold, like the design of Moncler women Jackets to help them wear down the United States and also warm.
